Answer:

The Great Depression of the 1930s worsened the already bleak economic situation of African Americans. They were the first to be laid off from their jobs, and they suffered from an unemployment rate two to three times that of whites.

Answer:

The average American family lived by the Depression-era motto: “Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without.” Many tried to keep up appearances and carry on with life as close to normal as possible while they adapted to new economic circumstances. Households embraced a new level of frugality in daily life.

Compare the Chinese and Indian approaches to the patriarchal family
Marysya12 [62]
It really depends on the time period, but if we're talking in general, China had Confucian views, while India had the caste system. Both were very patriarchal, but China's social system was more based on family values and India was more focused on jobs. China was way more strict ("women should stay in the house", foot binding, etc.) I hope this helps somewhat. :)

Answer:

Factories, Mines, and Child Labor

The Industrial Revolution created a great deal of change in society.

One major change was the shift from work being done at home by

hand in cottage industries to work being done in factories. There

were harsh and unsafe working conditions in these early factories.

The machines posed a significant threat to workers’ lives. Even more

deadly was work performed in coal mines. Owners of mines and

factories had considerable control over the lives of laborers who

worked long hours for low pay. An average worker would work 14

hours a day, six days a week. Fearful of losing their jobs, workers

would typically not complain about the horrible conditions and low

pay. Owners realized that they could pay women and children less

than men. Child labor increased because it kept the costs of

production low and the profits high. As a result, the working class

lived in poverty, while the bosses who made up the middle class

grew wealthy.

Hope this helps :)

Which statement expresses the central idea of the text (The Reign of Terror)?
Oksanka [162]
The Reign Of Terror was Robespierre’s system of killing ANYONE with anti-revolution acts. He even had his closest teammate, George Danton, beheaded. This was caused by the Third Estate wanting equality with the nobles and clergy. Although, after the French Revolution, Napoleon took over and turned France into an empire. Based on this information, the best answer would be C.
